NATIVE SONS TRUCKEE FLY FISHING TOURS 2018

Native Sons Fly Fishing Tours on the Big & Little Truckee Rivers

2018 Dates:

July 13th & 14th ~ August 17th & 18th

The CONCEPT: Through many years of guiding fly anglers in the Truckee and Graeagle areas; both Jon Baiocchi and Frank R. Pisciotta have noticed a trend. Many of their experienced fly angling clients visiting for the first time or having previously fished the area expressed an interest in becoming more familiar with the idiosyncrasies of the local “wild trout” fisheries; hoping to minimize their “prospecting” time. They engaged Jon or Frank’s services with their prime focus being an orientation to local waters; being guided and catching trout being secondary. These fly anglers want to be briefed about:

1—Most productive techniques

2—Local bugs and respective fly patterns

3—Seasonally ideal angling times

4—Key access points of selected waters

The SPECIFICS: The Tour is designed to give fly anglers what they need to know to be successful when venturing on selected special regulation sectors of the Big Truckee, from the town of Truckee to Hirschdale, and the Little Truckee below Stampede dam. Tours are limited to six (6). Jon and Frank know they can easily enroll more tour guests, but they want to assure a high quality experience. Fly fishers will learn of access points, equipment, tactics, techniques, flies, entomology, and local inside knowledge. The Tour entails a “meet & greet” and PowerPoint presentation on Friday evening and a Tour Packet consisting of a map, essays on both waters, and a hatch chart. A bonus is a copy of the originalTruckee & Little Truckee Tips. Saturday we auto-caravan; participates providing their own transportation. Lunch and drinks are included. After lunch we wader up (bring your own gear) and split into two fishing groups; similar to a guide trip.

WHO WE ARE: Jon and Frank are “born & raised” northern Californians with a combined 54 years of guiding fly anglers exclusively on their “home waters” and 94 years of fly fishing. The tour information dispensed is reliable, timely and ingrained from Jon and Frank’s vast experience. Simply, experience does count. They have always tailored guide trips to the specific desires and skills of the individual client and have planned guest’s time accordingly. Hence the genesis of Native Sons Tours; to provide a group of experienced fly rodders a short learning curve and cost-effective investment in their angling time.
